While the study of global citizenship has become part of high school curricula in several countries across the globe, it has not to the same degree in the United States. To expand upon the existing literature and advance the study of global citizenship in the United States, this qualitative, interpretivist case study evaluates the perceptions and experiences of an administrator, two teachers, and six students of a global studies course at an urban high school in New Jersey.
